    Stop with the FLU comparisons!!!!

    Ignorant fukks

    do I fear when my grandpa has the flu

    near my grandma!!!

    stfu

    doesn’t surprise me tho,

    pick a fukkin winner

    before you become a doctor

    let alone a scientist

    Can’t even handicap a fukkin simulation

    - you get the flu , we bring you soup

    - you get this , our elders could die

    can you not see the difference??????

    people are fuvcking stupid. people have to make patterns and comparison. it is one of the deals with being human.

    its why people experience deja vu. their brain naturally tries to relate experiences and make patterns or comparisons.

    Kid what do you mean?

    All of the top medical sites & entities compare the two in order to have something with familiarity to gauge things.

    Corona spreads faster then the average flu but your immune system can and should beat it just like a flu.. I'm convinced of this!!!

    C'mon, Hman, you know what he means

    Yes, it's "compared" (contrasted, arguably) to the flu by educated people in terms of how much exponentially worse it is.

    I'm quite sure he's talking more about those who diminish COVID-19's danger by saying, "We don't shut down the country for the flu!!" and the like

    Everyone is divided

    Half say Covid is worse and half say it's no worse than flu and open things up.

    Many argue the numbers of corona cases are skewed one way or the other.

    Only time will tell

    But the message from just about everyone with any kind of scientific background is that this is a major pandemic, and the comparisons to the flu are always made to show that this is way, way worse. I doubt every single one of these people is lying or has a hidden agenda, even if some do

    You can question the data and statistics of course, there's no way to know for sure. But even then, it seems way more likely that cases are under-reported rather than over-reported, especially factoring in China

    People say the media wants to blow it out of proportion -- you know who doesn't want to blow their country's numbers out of proportion? Every government on Earth! I think I know who wins that battle

    Opinion on the virus is pretty much divided by political lines and it's not changing. That's all you need to know

    I hate when politics get involved.. This is simply a horrible virus and that's all it should be treated as on both political sides.

    Half are right and the other half will get a Darwin Award!
    Who do you think gets a posthumous award?

    Hey guys stop comparing a deadly virus to another deadly virus?
    Humans compare and contrast things to one another to help them understand better. Corona and Influenza are not the same thing. But they are certainly in the same ballpark and worth comparison.
